Tsz-wo Sze updated RATIS-1176:
------------------------------
Parent Issue: RATIS-1953 (was: RATIS-979)
> Benchmark various ways to stream data

> In RATIS-1175, we provided a WritableByteChannel view of DataStreamOutput in
> order to support FileChannel.transferTo. However, [~runzhiwang] pointed out
> that sun.nio.ch.FileChannelImpl.transferTo has three submethods
> - transferToDirectly (fastest)
> - transferToTrustedChannel
> - transferToArbitraryChannel (slowest, requires buffer copying)
> Unfortunately, our current implementation only able to use
> transferToArbitraryChannel.
> There are several ideas below to improve the performance. We should
> benchmark them.
> # Improve the current implementation of WritableByteChannel so that it may be
> able to use a faster transferTo method.
> # Use
> [FileChannel.map(..)|https://docs.oracle.com/javase/8/docs/api/java/nio/channels/FileChannel.html#map-java.nio.channels.FileChannel.MapMode-long-long-]
> and pass MappedByteBuffer to our DataStreamOutput.writeAsync method.
> # Add a new API
> {code}
> //DataStreamOutput
> CompletableFuture<DataStreamReply> writeAsync(File);
> {code}
> Internally, use Netty DefaultFileRegion for zero-copy file transfer:
> https://github.com/netty/netty/blob/4.1/example/src/main/java/io/netty/example/file/FileServerHandler.java#L53
> The data flow of client -> primary -> peer as follows
> 1. If stream file and do not calculate checksum, we use transferTo. In
> client, there are 1 DMA copy and 1 DMA gather copy, no CPU copy. In primary,
> there are
> 3 DMA copy and 3 CPU copy. In peer, there are 2 DMA copy and 2 CPU copy.

> 2. If stream file and calculate checksum, we use MapByteBuffer. In client,
> there are 2 DMA copy and 1 CPU copy. In primary, there are
> 3 DMA copy and 3 CPU copy. In peer, there are 2 DMA copy and 2 CPU copy.
> !screenshot-7.png!
> 3. If stream data not in file and calculate checksum, we use
> DirectByteBuffer. In client, there are 2 DMA copy and 2 CPU copy. In primary,
> there are
> 3 DMA copy and 3 CPU copy. In peer, there are 2 DMA copy and 2 CPU copy.
> !screenshot-8.png!
> 4. we should avoid reading data into heap such as HeapByteBuffer. In client,
> there are 2 DMA copy and 4 CPU copy. In primary, there are
> 3 DMA copy and 3 CPU copy. In peer, there are 2 DMA copy and 2 CPU copy.
> !screenshot-9.png!
> 5. The following is flow before ratis streaming and use ProtoBuf to send
> data. In client there are 2 DMA copy and 4 CPU copy. In leader, there are 3
> DMA copy and 7 CPU copy. In follower, there are 2 DMA copy and 5 CPU copy.
